Ladies and Gents

177 is the new number. It helped that I was sicker than a dog....speaking of dogs our darling charlie is gone, I mean husband took him the humane society, he stepped on his feces and ran around the house and left poop marks all over and that was the straw that broke the camel's back because we had already made so many arrangements around him to not give him away. We are sad and miss him dearly he is absolutely wonderful with children and had a lot of good qualities but he was not a good match for the home. My oldest daughter cried a lot to the point that hubby and I sat down and talked about bringing him home again ( I was feeling guilty) but I like that now we can have the chairs back at the table since we could not because charlie would climb on them and get on the table and push them to the point of getting on the counters and find food, he ate his own poop and then wanted to lick the girls faces and I did not like those things and the chewing at all so the decision was mainly based on health. We love and miss him dearly.

Still in the 180's

But I am increasing my exercise. I found a book I think will be very helpfull, specially with my spirit and mind I have not purchased it yet. I will keep you all updated on that.

My ex husband did not learned his lesson when my lawyer told him to stop sending me insult-emails he sent yet another in which he calls me parasite. My husband is about to go postal on his A**, but that would not bring anything good specially for the girls who really look up to my husband. I am trying to locate a great woman lawyer speciallized in custody cases since my ex lawyer was helping my ex with info on taking me to court for a cut in child support, he pays 400$ per child, my brother pays 700$ for one my friend gets 900$ for her one child. He makes a good living and he still asks me for money to take the girls out!!! he has no shame.

Valentine's Day is fast approaching and my husband and I decided to give eachother goody bags with little things with hearts and cute sayings. I got a few little things for him already and am keeping my eyes open for more.

Hello Y'all

I have been in the 180's for a month the lowest 182.0. I got 4lbs to loose for the minus 30 lbs goal. My husband has joined me and his mood is not very good I nearly baked him yesterday a cake just to get him back in a good mood but bless his heart his really wants this and I need the partner/competition.

My mother came to visit for my daughter's 2nd birthday and was shocked when she saw me, she says the difference is big with just a 26 lbs loss.

In other news I am on the prowl for another lawyer, I am really mad at the ex husband for leaving the girls alone in his house while he went to the store. These children are 7, 4 and 2 yrs old!! He is always fishing for something bad to bitch to me about in relation to my home and husband and how we raise the girls, but he is not finding anything and that must be driving him crazy. We watched Herbie recently and the oldest daughter told her dad about it and he started questioning her about the movie. Is it violent, scary, etc.... until I took the phone and told him it is rated G but that was not enough for him he had to bitch.

Oh NO!

I started the 24th fine and had dinner and hot cocoa and cookies, next morning +2 lbs. On the 25th I had a big breakfast for the family and gained another 2 lbs, oh but it is ok I am already back and lost 1.5 lbs already. I am just mad at my self because those 4 lbs took a week to get rid of and only 2 days to put on. LESSON LEARNED.

Kids are with my ex and his new girlfriend and her 2yr old son. I am redecorating the girls bathroom with bubbles and ducks and it is looking sooo cute. I will post pictures when it is all done.
